    Those weapons come out of developments in medicine. Technology itself is not good or evil, it can be used for good or for evil. If you decide not to develop technology you’re depriving the good of it as well. My point earlier is to show that there are good uses for these things.

      Hmm… so maybe we keep developing medicine but not as a weapon and we keep developing AI but not as a weapon.

      Or can you explain why one should be restricted from weapons development and not the other?

      I disagree with your premise here. Taking a life is a serious step. A machine that unilaterally decides to kill some people with no recourse to human input has no good application.

      It’s like inventing a new biological weapon.

      By not creating it, you are not depriving any decent person of anything that is actually good.
